Only problem I've noticed after a week of using this rom is that music over bluetooth skips every now and then, other than that this rom is very, very smooth. Stock rom.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ManMOuntain:
Very happy with rooted 2.3.3, running very well. Had two issues, the first I had was with poor battery usage. The main drain was attributed to Google Maps. I don't use Maps so I removed it and battery use is as good as 2.2.1 was. Secondly, droidwall simply refuses to work. I've tried applying the iptables update but it's still not working unfortunately.

2.3.3 - first days

Hi all,

been running it for the last ~3 days, on the not so positive part I'd add the volume during conversations, even when set to minimum, is very loud, so disturbing that I've flashed the JPY modem over the original one.

Apart from that, I also noticed it's slower when unlocking the phone (I use the 9 dot security pattern) and it gobbles RAM like candy (with no apps open - after using a few and closing them, it stays at 270 MB used RAM, didn't have that with Froyo).

Cheers

[Galaxy S I9000 General] PhoenixFx:
Ok, here is my thoughts on the ROM so far. I’ve been using it for exactly a week now.

Flashed the ROM with boot leaders and now using CF-Root with CWM3 (I had to wait few days for a proper root fix as I didn’t want to use the old JV1 fix).

Everything is running smoothly, feels slightly faster than previous 2.2.1 JPY ROM. Some apps (i.e Skype) are more responsive now. I don’t have 100s of apps installed, but out of the 70 odd apps, everything is working as before.

GPS has never been an issue for me, no exceptions here. It performs quite well and I regularly use if for navigation.

Battery life is certainly better. Previously I managed to get around 16 hrs with my usage patterns, but now I can easily push beyond that with a single charge.

Now the mic input works when headsets are connected, this is huge advantage for me (especially when driving). Radio sounds better (think its finally stereo). Overall this is the best stock ROM I have used so far.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Godhead101:
Been using 2.3.3 for the last few days.

Observations so far;

1. Battery life is a definite improvement

2. Wifi is definitely less sensitive

3. Menu and Back buttons stay illuminated when screen is on

4. Bit laggy when the phone first wakes up, but after that, much faster

5. Live wallpapers don't stay on. After turning phone on and off again, wallpaper goes back to default desert screen

6. Can't expand text's to the whole screen. They can only be viewed in the 'speech bubbles'

7. GPS no problems

8. Gun Bros. game won't open(!!?)

Overall, good looking interface, much quicker. Very happy apart from the few bugs as mentioned above.

Anyone else found these problems or is it just me?!:cool:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] basti107:

What doesn't work? (some people mentioned accelerometers, animations)

for now everything works fine

How did you install it? (give simple explanation, method you used, with or without bootloaders, etc)

1) Turn off lagfix

2) Flash Stock firmware XXJVK

3) Downloaded ROM put on intSD Juwe's Smart Edition v3.1

4) Go to Download Mode

5) Flash any Speedmod kernel with odin(repartition and auto-reboot are UNTICK)

6) After installing kernel, unmount your phone from PC (phone is still in Download Mode), go to recovery

7) in green CWM install ROM

8) After reboot, go to CWM and make wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache

Are there any problems so far? (beside if something is not working, FC-s, app incompability, etc)

General performances? (how fast is the rom, compare it with ROM you used before)

fastest rom for now, no lag, smooth comparing with darky 9.5 cca30% faster

GPS? (no explanation necessary...)

work like before

Battery life? (ompare it with ROM you used before, what is the magnitude of battery drain?

I do not know for now I use it only one day but it seems better than before

JVK Gingerbread audio quality is horrible!

The most notable difference for me is the audio quality, which is horrible, the music I listen to just doesn't sound like it used to. which made me rollback to froyo again, have the engineers at Samsung not work on the audio driver yet or are they playing about with audio quality to save on battery life??

Hi Same here.

EQ @ Normal is ok but if the track got higher bass levels the sound is total distortioned ... (for example @ template ROCK ...) 2.2.1 is much better and audiophile as 2.3.3 could ever be ... :(

Else, everything on Top, fastest and smoothest ROM since the beginnin'

Hi, i found something strange in the "gingerbread keyboard", the one from market, i use this with 2.2.1 and work fine and fast. Now with JVK it seem that the keyboard miss some key when you write fast, testing the same words with samsung standard keyboard and ginger i found that ginger keyboard miss many times: simple word "ciao" ok with samsung key, not ok with gingerbread.. many times remain stuck on "o" pop up menu for " ò o 9 " ...

this is my results:

samsung keyboard : ciao ciao ciao ciao ciao

gingerbrad keyboard : cia cia ci cic cia

my hands are always the same eh !! :-)

did you find problems with gingerbread keyboard?

i'm pretty sure that all was fine with 2.2.1

bye!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rlorange:
Yes indeed something is strange... one of the few bugs in jvk is a missing script enabling multi-touch. This also affects maps in jvk you will notice two finger rotation doesn't work the same either. When you type fast you are in effect multi-touching.

To fix both problems use this fix:

Here I have a problem

So guys since I´ve updated with ODIN ( version 2.3.3, already had 2.3.2beta before) I just cant update via KIES. Maybe you think i cant update to Gingerbread because i am already on 2.3.3, but i have also downgraded to 2.2 for example and the same. Since then KIES doesnt recognize my phone, and so I cant update original firmwares. Someone could help me please ?

Excellent ROM. Very quick and no lags as compared to Froyo 2.2

No issues with GPS

I had problems with battery drain. However this was fixed after wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache. Battery seems to last longer than with Froyo

Only problem is the backlight on the soft keys when screen is on.

I wish google/samsung got rid of the two keys and kept only one key on the front of the phone.

I missed this until last night after returning from holiday.

install: no problems

issues carried over from 2.3.2: none that i have noticed ... it's actually quite nice. the battery seems to drain about the same ...

improvements: memory management seems to be much better. i can multi-task again and not have to worry about clearing out the memory manually. the internet browser (why don't they just make a nice mobile chrome version?!) is not buggy like in 2.3.2, which is very nice.

gripe: i am not a fan of the removal of colours from the battery indicator. GREEN -> ORANGE -> RED ... It stays green now. :eek: not cool ... i kept looking down thinking, ah, no need to recharge .. it's still green.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] fungun1234:
I have been using this for a bout a week now:

1) flashed the rom with Odin:

2) did the trick to get rid of constant backlight issue of the menu and back keys and flash the CF-root 2.9 kernel

3) got rid of a few excess apps from the kernel - don't need them.

These are my observations:

Good:

1) snappy very few lags

2) decent battery life, a bit better than 2.2.1

3) sound is routed through headphones during a conversation and is routed through the phone earpiece when headphones are unplugged, and back through headphones when plugged in. - non of custom kernels based on 2.2.1 I tried does this.

4) the mms app does not truncate messages in the main view which force you to click on it to view the rest of it.

5) the browser scrolling is smooth and fast (when there is no problem - see the bad)

Bad:

1) photo gallery seems to be jerky when tries to show all the pictures when just started.

2) the browser scrolling is not continued but stopped suddenly in the middle.

3) the browser does not seem to work with phonearena.com well - very jerky experience when try to scroll around. (this can be sorted by a) dumping the cache to file in debug menu, b) clear the cache in the menu - probly caching problems here )

4) wi-fi signal is weaker - not major problem for me, as this seems to safe battery a bit.

That's all so far folks.

Unzip first your selected rom then check the PDA file if it has "sbl" or "low" attached to its name, for example: PDA_XXJVK_Sbl.tar.md5 or XXJPK-PDA-low-CL584433.tar.md5. Or if a separate sbl file is also included in the folder.

Also - Weather bug desktop widget drains power - removed app.

1.5 days - still at 79 %. Used XDA app, internet, F1 app, twitter, FB etc.

I know all of these features and issues have been added/solved by the devlopers but was expecting it from Samsung in their stock rom.

only real benefit of this official release is, we can expect the source code to be released soon which means that the developers can implement more and better features more easily.

I don't really get why some of you guys are so negative. Samsung has delivered 3 generations of android for our phone now and theyre still getting better. This being the first official 2.3 release, sure it still has a couple of minor issues, but I really cant relate to the negativity that some people always unleash whenever a new fw comes and its not 100% perfection.
